Verdict

The excellent record of the Christian Williams yard in valuable handicap chases swings the vote the way of CAP DU NORD. The very progressive Kinondo Kwetu is feared most despite clear top weight. Twig, who won over hurdles here off an identical mark on his latest start, last year's runner-up Ruthless Article and The Abbey also make the shortlist in one of the highlights of the summer jumps season.

  1. CAP DU NORD (FR)
